The Audubon Society eX SITS, and no
doubt It's members are earnestly Of work
TO stop the wholesale destruction OF the
pretty denizens CT the wood whose bril-
liant plumsge attracts the covetous eye
of vanity. Fashion, ever mini8tering to
besuty's whims, pays little heed to
pleadings Of phiianthropists, and hence
cruel war is Weged to secure bright
feathers for the birds OF Vanity Fair,
who do not scorn borrowed plumage, but
show an utter disregard to the earnest
protests against the wholesale destruc-
ton that goes On.
Women of wealth and position are
largely responsible fer the cruelty, and
could It once be brought home 70 them
the modes prscticed to give birds life
like appearance, the taxidermist exeTcis-
ing his skill often before life is fed, they
would find some other oTnamentatiCn.
and enter heartily into al efforts TO pre-
vent such cruelty. As il Is, noc content
with the use of birds and their feathers
for millinery purposes, women are sping
6 savage ancestry which wrapped royalty
in cloaks of feathers, Snd SO fsstidious in
the choice that no less than 500 birds viii
be required TO furnish the necessary ms
terisl. 1t is said Mrs. Mackay has sent
two marksmen to New Guinea to secure
that number Of birds of paradise to make
her mantle. Each bird will furnish 8
piece from it's breast four By six inches,
of seal brown color shading into pink
terra Gotta. Such mantle can never be
ample enough to hide the vanity that
prompted the conception, and far more
womanly is it to spare innocent life and
be less regslly attired.
Women need not be slaves, and firm,
persistent refusal to wear such decora.
tiCns would render such stock unsalsble,
and IN this way s hearty cooperation
would De effected with those who are ami
mated y a generous desire 10 save the
songster of the wood and the pretty
winged bird OF ocean and of sea grit isle.
Against ostrich feathers there is no
such restriction, and they sre pretty
enough to meet ali fashions demands for
dress or bonnet. Who can blame that
lover who turned in loathing from his
love on seeing her arreyed in costume
which cost the lives of many doves?
Permanently the bird oflove, what could
be more cruel than such & sacrifice?
Reprehensible as is the fashion Of
feathers and birds, the candid reporter
must admit that thus far the rage fol
them is updiminished. Entire turbans
y are made of them. and scarcely 6 hat OF
4 bonnet leaves the hands OF the millinel
Z without this style of ornament.

Fer better OF worse, are the words
spoken when two people pledge their
lives to each other. Too often are they
thought!essly spoken and regarded
merely IS an idle formula. As the rain
must fall, SO in the new life the "Worse''
will come and there is the point where
the gepuineness CT tie pledge is tried.
Few brides think much beyond the trous-
seau, the tEbleaux, the wedding gifts and

will come and happy is that women who

low the surface to perceive the motives
of the apparently singular combination.
Our Republican contemporary has failed
TO read the signs of the times; has not
felt the approach of business impetus !;
knew nothing whatever about the COM
ing boom, and when it made its rustling
appearance, our Republican contempo-
rary was dumfounded. 1t did not sue
ceed in pulling itself together until op-
portunity hadIpassed. Its "diVine' nght
of leadership could not be asserted. Con-
seuuently there is no boom. LII
our Republican contemporary can
not arrogantly lead, it will display It's
next most strongly marked characteristic,
and kick. To recognize something our
Republican contemporary had failed to
perceive is an outrage, and to act without
the authority of ukase from Republican
headquarters is a public crime. The mo-
| tives of our Mormon morning contempo-
rary are of a different complexion.
It speaks for the Mormon Church.
A business boom in Salt Lake
City is fraught with the deadliest
peril to Mormonism 1t embodies fatal
blow at Mormon supremacy. 1t means
Gentle emigration and Gentle capital.
1t means the speedy transformation OF
Salt Lake from Mormon to an Ameri-
can city. Gentle dollars and Gentle
citizens are so many steps in the down.
ward course of Mormonism. Enough OF
these steps lead to the inevitable destruc-
ton of the Mormon power. Therefore a
business boom in Salt Lake is
fought with all of the vigor Of
desperation by the Mormon forces.
Progress and the Mormon Church are
opposing quantities, and one must go to
the wall. Our Mormon morning con-
temporary is fighting for existence. Our
Republican contemporary is loaded to
the muzzle with spite. The one is driven
by stern necessity. The other is i'm
PEELED by a mean malice. The struggle
of our Mormon morning contempo-

The time is here for the business import
ance of Salt Lake to assert itself, and the
assertion has been formulated. In the
natural order of events the mag
nifcent capabilities of our city
and Territory have been recognized,
and the great march to wealth and power
has begun. There is no logic so power
full as the logic of dollars and cents. There
is no argument so convincing as the ar
gument of business. The resources of
Utah are offering wealth to those who
will develop them, and Salt Lake is the
natural business center of these develop
ments. 1t is written that Utah will be
great, and its capital metropolitan.
